Experience East Frisian hospitality in the two vacation apartments at “Huus an’t Diek” (House on the Dike), located in the immediate vicinity of the North Sea spa town of Bensersiel, between Bensersiel and Dornumersiel. The North Sea spa town of Bensersiel and the North Sea resort of Dornumersiel are located directly on the unique natural wonder that is the “Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park,” a “UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site” since 2009.

Just beyond the dike, you’ll find plenty of peace, relaxation, and restorative rest! And children are also very welcome here! Here with us, you’ll find restorative rest and the well-deserved peace and quiet you need for the most beautiful days and weeks of the year!

Both of our vacation apartments are approximately 60 square meters in size, each featuring two bedrooms, spacious living rooms with open-concept kitchens and balconies, as well as bathrooms with showers, sinks, and toilets. The apartments are tastefully and lovingly furnished, very well-equipped, and offer excellent accommodations for two to three people.

Our house is located in the East Frisian marshlands, almost directly on the Schlafdeich along Störtebekerstraße, and every day you can enjoy the fantastic view of the East Frisian fields, meadows, and pastures, as well as the dike and its inhabitants. The sunrise and the view as a whole will “haunt” your dreams all year long.

To take your evening walk along the dike, you can head across the Schlafdeich, so to speak, straight through the fields. Just take a short stroll or even walk for a few hours and enjoy the sunset. You won’t even notice how time flies—it can only be this beautiful here on the coast!

Whether you’re here for a vacation or a health retreat, you’ll be perfectly taken care of at the North Sea spa town of Bensersiel.

From our house, you can reach all the attractions Bensersiel has to offer in 20 minutes on foot or 10 minutes by bike: You’ll pass the harbor on your way to the beach, and very close by is, for example, the “Sonneninsel” North Sea Thermal Baths, a modern, heated water park and adventure pool. All spa facilities, as well as a modern wellness, sauna, and fitness center, are housed in the “Sonneninsel.”

Once you reach the beach facilities, you’ll find the beach itself, complete with an adventure playground and the “Kunterbunt” children’s center. In addition, the beach features the new beach portal with “Bennis Abenteuerland,” a covered beach area for children. There’s also the seawater wave pool with a giant slide, the maritime sports theme park, the circus tent for children and various events, as well as many more ideas to enhance your vacation.

The Kajedeich along the “Benser Tief” is perfect for wonderful bike rides inland along the “Benser Tief.” You can also set out directly from our house on a bike ride through the marshlands toward Esens, Dornum, and Aurich—or simply enjoy a leisurely tour through the magnificent and diverse landscape.

You’ll find plenty of shops—such as those in the Deichpassage in Bensersiel—as well as restaurants and cafés along your way to the beach.

Very close to Bensersiel lies Esens, the “parlor” of the Harlingerland region. You can reach Esens by car in about five minutes. Better yet, hop on a bike and take the “back route” through the marshlands via the “Hammerweg” or along the idyllic “Kajedeich” by the “Benser Tief.” Wonderful tours await you.

The fantastic offerings in Bensersiel are complemented by the over 475-year-old knight’s town of Esens, with its historic town center. Here you’ll find a variety of events, both large and small, museums, as well as additional dining options and shopping opportunities.

Children in Esens should definitely visit the “Klabautermann” indoor play park—they’re
